The challenge

Absent from the answers buyers trusted

A local contractor in Manchester could not break into the Google local map pack. They were relying heavily on paid directories and print advertising, which had diminishing returns.

The approach

A focused local strategy

We optimized their Google Business Profile, integrated localized geo-targeted landing pages, built local citations, and ran a reviews optimization sequence targeting local customer trust indicators.

“Our phones are ringing off the hook since we partnered with Kiyado. We rank number one for every construction keyword in Manchester.”
